A rod assembly for a fluid pressure cylinder has a rod member and a packing that is mounted on an outer circumferential part of the rod member and slides along a slide hole. Assembly is simple because a conventional hard piston is not used. The assembly can be carried out simply by hand without the use of a dedicated tool. Thus, the rod assembly simplifies assembly work.

The present invention relates to a fluidic cylinder. This fluidic cylinder is configured in such a manner that a piston unit is received in an axially displaceable manner within a cylinder tube formed in a rectangular cross-sectional shape. The piston unit has: a base body having the front end of a piston rod staked thereto; a wear ring having the base body received therein and having a magnet incorporated therein; and piston packing adjacent to the wear ring. The piston unit is integrally held at one end of the piston rod. The wear ring and the piston packing are formed in a rectangular cross-sectional shape corresponding to the rectangular cross-sectional shape of the cylinder tube and are provided rotatable relative to the piston rod.

An actuator includes a piston assembly movably disposed within an assembly housing having a fixedly supported end and an opposing end that receives a movable piston assembly. The piston assembly includes a piston rod and an attached piston head having a fixed orifice as well as an orifice with a check valve to create rate control of the assembly. Hydraulic fluid is caused to move through the axially movable piston head based on compressive and tensile loads imparted to the assembly. A plurality of pre-loaded springs are configured to selectively provide pressure relief in the event the orifices of the piston become clogged, wherein the plurality of pre-loaded springs, such as disc springs, further provide an energy absorbing function of the assembly based on loading conditions.

An underwater actuator includes: a housing to be immersed under water; a cylinder chamber formed in the housing; a piston accommodated in the cylinder chamber so the piston is movable in a sliding manner in the cylinder chamber, the piston dividing the cylinder chamber into a first and a second pressure receiving chambers; a rod extending from the piston to the first pressure receiving chamber side, the rod penetrating the housing; a release chamber formed in the housing, having an internal pressure kept lower than a water pressure outside of the housing; and a switching mechanism including: a first switcher configured to switch a communication state between the second pressure receiving chamber and the outside of the housing to allow or block communication therebetween; and a second switcher configured to switch a communication state between the second pressure receiving chamber and the release chamber to allow or block communication therebetween.

A brake device for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system without a vacuum booster, with a housing with at least one pressure chamber arranged therein, with a cylinder piston which can be axially moved in an actuation direction by an actuating rod unit coupled to the cylinder piston in order to generate brake pressure, wherein a rigid stop is provided for the cylinder piston which defines the non-actuated starting position of the cylinder piston. In order to provide an improved brake device of the above-mentioned type, which permits simple and reliable detection of the zero point and simultaneously has reduced noise emission on the return, a damping element is provided which permits a mechanical decoupling of the actuating rod unit from the cylinder piston in a release direction opposite the actuation direction by reversible deformation.

An actuator includes a housing defining an inlet port, a piston and a return spring disposed within the housing, and an elastically deformable element. The return spring is configured to apply a biasing force to the piston to move the piston to a spring return position. A first fluid pressure applied to the inlet port moves the piston against the biasing force of the return spring to a first actuated position in which the piston indirectly engages a stop portion of the actuator housing. A second fluid pressure, greater than the first fluid pressure, applied to the inlet port moves the piston against the elastically deformable element to compress the elastically deformable element to move the piston to a second actuated position beyond the first actuated position.

Provided is a diaphragm type actuator which drives an operation rod in an axial direction, including: a diaphragm which is connected to the operation rod; a high pressure chamber which is adjacent to one end side of the diaphragm in the axial direction; a low pressure chamber which is adjacent to the other end side of the diaphragm in the axial direction; and a return spring which is provided in the low pressure chamber and urges the diaphragm toward the high pressure chamber. Since an absorption portion is disposed inside the high pressure chamber, a force acting on the diaphragm is absorbed when the diaphragm moves toward the high pressure chamber and stops therein.

A first switching valve that switches between flow passages which allow communication between a first pressure-receiving chamber and a fluid supply device side and flow passages which allow communication between a second pressure-receiving chamber and the fluid supply device side, according to a change in a fluid pressure to be applied, and a second switching valve that is switched to flow passages which apply the fluid pressure to the first switching valve, are provided. The second switching valve includes return device, and is provided to be reciprocatable between an operation position to which the second switching valve is moved by a stroke of a piston and a return position to which the second switching valve is moved by the return device. The piston and the second switching valve are movable independently of each other.

A fluid pressure cylinder which has a head cover and a rod cover provided on both ends of a cylinder tube, wherein the head cover and the rod cover are formed by casting such as die-casting. A first connecting channel which recesses in a groove shape in the outward radial direction is formed in the outer-circumferential surface of a first concave section of the head cover. A ring-shaped first holder is pressed into the first concave section, causing the formation of a cross-sectionally rectangular first connecting channel, the opening region of which is sealed. In addition, the first connecting channel connects a cylinder chamber of the cylinder tube and a first cushion chamber of the head cover.
